A. T. blade-opening technology makes SOG Flash II knives incredibly easy to handle. View Video Demo. The 3. 5-inch, heat-treated blade provides you with a versatile, dependable cutting edge.

A reversible clip lets the knife sit securely and discreetly in your pocket. View larger. SOG Assisted Technology for Speed and Safety Fast, safe, one-handed opening makes SOG Flash Series knives incredibly easy to handle in a wide variety of situations. Once you start opening the knife, SOG’s Patented SOG Assisted Technology, or S. A. T. , takes over. Through the balance of opposing high-tension coil springs in the knife, the force to propel the knife open becomes greater than the closing force, and the blade will open on its own. This unique feature means that if you are using your dominant hand on another task, you can just as easily open the FSA-5 with your other hand. For security and peace of mind, S. A. T. was developed in conjunction with a superior locking system. The unique design of S. A. T. knives allows them to use locking mechanisms that are stronger, more reliable, and easier to access ambidextrously than conventional liner locks. For Flash Series knives, this means the blade is held in place with a reliable piston lock that can be released quickly with a sliding button. An additional safety lock offers extra security when the blade is closed. For easy reference, the lock switch shows red when the knife is ready to open. Cryogenic Heat Treatment for Sharp, Dependable Blades Of course the workhorse of any knife is the cutting surface, and the FSA-5 offers a full, 3. 5-inch, half-serrated blade finished with an elegant tiger stripe TiNi, which is a durable titanium and nickel compound. SOG’s proprietary Cryogenic Heat Treatment process ensures that this blade will stay sharp over the long haul. This intensive process takes more than 48 hours and involves slowly bringing the blade’s temperature down to less than -300 degrees Fahrenheit, then bringing it slowly back to room temperature. The stress created through this process relieves the material on an atomic level and increases overall strength and edge retention. Elegant, Ergonomic Design for Ease of Use Even if your blade is sharp, it’s hard to make the cuts you want if a knife doesn’t sit comfortably in your hand. That’s why the handle on this knife features a unique, ergonomic contour. Crafted from tough, glass-reinforced Zytel, the handle helps ensure that your knife is both durable and well-balanced. And it is lightly textured to prevent slippage. At just 3. 1 ounces, this folding knife is lightweight and easy to carry. A reversible, bayonet-mounted clip extends from the back of the handle, allowing the knife to sit low in your pocket for the most discreet carry possible. This knife is backed by a lifetime warranty that protects against defects in workmanship and materials.
